Picked-up pieces while strolling the beach wearing long sleeves and SPF 101 sunscreen . . .Just a reminder - Shank wanted Curt Schilling thrown in jail over this 'handout'.
■ It’s impossible to prove, but I will go the grave convinced that Curt Schilling’s final gift to New England baseball was his role in driving the Pawtucket Red Sox out of Rhode Island and into the bosom of Worcester. Schill’s $75 million handout from Rhode Island for his 38 Studios venture (it went belly-up two years later) created debt, triggered lawsuits, and poisoned Rhode Island officials against any taxpayer assistance when the PawSox came calling.

DHL Dan LXXII - Get Yer Tinfoil Hats On! - II
Shank's first 'column' in three weeks is of the Picked Up Pieces variety, and veers right off the bat into conspiracy theory mode that would impress Alex Jones:
Hey Shank, why don't you give back all the money you made off of Schilling with that book Reverse The Curse. YOU!!! have no problem making money of that man or that team that you called and I quote "A pack of frauds." Schill that night of game 7 had every right to destroy you in his pregame quote on NESN because he like everybody else in New England had enough of " One man's cash cow." Schills words here.
